Believe in Daydreams

 I was having troubles thinking on what to do for my great nephew turning 18, so I just went searching through all my stuff trying to find something that would give me inspiration and I was going through my basket of all these things I have made in the past and never used and I starting pulling things out that would kind of go together. 

The very bottom background I believe was a stencil that I off set and used two different blues. The next blue layering I believe was those powder colors that you shake out and add water too. The main image is an ATC I did years ago and I used stencils and stamping with a bit of stickles, it felt like it needed a little more so I added the wooden bird.


It is a bit different then my usual type of cards but I guess it is nice to get out of the same old, hope he liked it.

  • Artist trading card as focal, using stamps and stencils
  • Fiskars - rounded corner punch
  • Stencil for background
  • Tim Holtz - Metallic sticker book (sentiment)
  • Hobby Lobby - wooden bird

Thanks so much for stopping by today,

Connie

What a fabulous way to bring all those background pieces together! I love it! The bird is the perfect finish. It absolutely looks like it belongs there!

I just love how this turned out!! I think sometimes we can get most creative when we're using scraps and odds and ends up. This is such a cool card - he'll love it. ❤️
